3. Main Idea/Vocabulary I will compare fractions using common denominators. common denominator least common denominator (LCD)

4. Example 1 Compare Fractions Compare and using models and the least common denominator. 2 3 2 4 The models show that >. 2 3 2 4

5. Example 1 Compare Fractions Step 1 Find the LCM of the denominators. The LCM of 3 and 4 is 12. Step 2 Find the equivalent fractions with a denominator of 12. 2 3 8 12 = THINK 3 × 4 = 12, 2 × 4 = 8 2 4 6 12 = THINK 4 × 3 = 12, 2 × 3 = 6

6. Example 1 Compare Fractions Step 3 Compare the numerators. Since 8 > 6, then >. 8 12 6 Answer: So, >. 2 3 2 4

8. Example 2 Compare Fractions Using the LCD Compare and using models and the least common denominator. 3 4 7 8 Step 1 Find the LCM of the denominators. The LCM of 4 and 8 is 8. Note that multiplying 4 by 8 gives a common denominator of 32, which is not the LCD, 8.

9. Example 2 Compare Fractions Using the LCD Step 2 Find an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 8 for each fraction. 3 4 = THINK 4 × 2 = 8, 3 × 2 = 6 7 8 = THINK 8 × 1 = 8, 7 × 1 = 7 6 8 7 8 Step 3 Compare the numerators. Since 6 < 7, then <. 6 8 7 8 Answer: So, <. 3 4 7 8

11. Example 3 Idalia made 1 out of 2 baskets and Susan made 3 out of 5 baskets. Who made a greater fraction of baskets? The models show that <. 1 2 3 5

12. Example 3 Step 1 Find the LCM of the denominators. The LCM of 2 and 5 is 10. Step 2 Find an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 10 for each fraction. 1 2 5 10 = THINK 2 × 5 = 10, 1 × 5 = 5 3 5 6 10 = THINK 5 × 2 = 10, 3 × 2 = 6

13. Example 3 Step 3 Compare the numerators. Since 5 < 6, then <. 5 10 6 Answer: So, <. Susan made a greater fraction of baskets. 1 2 3 5
